    I had a 2003 Defender td5, Momo nero steering wheel and an 8 Ball gearknob were the two absolute best mods [well a 190bhp ecu really made a huge difference too], it's more of a drivers vehicle than some probably give it credit for, it's basically bringing you back to 1984!

      Don't be ignorant, most old cars don't have air bags to begin with. Harnesses on the other hand are a real danger in the event of a crash. you'll either submarine and get some nice internal bleeding or get an uber cool basilar skull fracture with out the use of a hans/helmet combo.

      5 point minimum harness for me, submarining avoided. I'd say avoid a cage for a daily, can do more harm than good without a helmet for sure.

  • @Murzyn2137
    @Murzyn2137 Před 7 lety

    Cut off about 12cm (5 inches) from my shifter, got nice leather cover and pedals covers.
    Faster shift, better looks, and finally I can perform heel&toe in my car, because designer put brake and gas miles away from each other, and that's why I put covers on.
    Currently saving up money for alcantara for steering wheel, thanks to you ;)

    One thing that I did in my S2000 was fit a lowered seat rail. It drops you down about an inch of so but made a big difference to how the car felt. Well worth it.

    @Carstuff111 Před 6 lety

    Things that massively helped my 1992 Honda Civic DX sedan drive better: new shift linkage bushings, a heavier, metal gear knob and a smaller aftermarket steering wheel. Things I still need/want to change: need a dead pedal (the mounting holes are there thankfully), want a short shifter, and with my small feet, I need pedal covers because, while I can heel toe downshift, its a bit of a stretch. Oh yes, and having a tachometer is also nice as well. And, I would love a set of good seats and harnesses as well.

    The very first mod I did on it was putting in a wide/panoramic rear view mirror !!
    I don't know why no one talks about it, it should be the Number 1 mod to do on any car.
    It noly costs around 10 bucks. Improves your view of what's behind & around.
    It was the first mod I did on my previous car, and it will probably be the first thing I do on any car I get next!
    It's a must have.

  • @Nozerone
    @Nozerone Před 7 lety +1

    My favorite shift knob I ever had was a 3 dollar knob from Auto-zone. The downside to those knobs though is that they don't actually screw into place. You put a plastic sleeve over the threads on the shifter, then screw in some small screws through the base of the knob to squeeze the sleeve onto the threads. After a while it can start to wiggle. I liked this shift knob so much I said fuck it and super glued it into place.

  • @Mybwain

    u forgot to add one of the cheapest yet one of the best mod.....adding that CT badge for extra 10 whp.

  • @Megadriver
    @Megadriver Před 7 lety

    I've installed an NTG2.5 infotainment system in my Mercedes and that's about it. The interior is now perfect. I did have an ECU remap, but that's not related to the interior.
    The standard seats are very comfortable and I don't like bucket seats. I like the big Mercedes steering wheel with it's buttons and shiny star. Short throw gearshifters and gearknobs are useless for an automatic. Same thing for pedal mods.
    My next project will be bi-xenon headlights and a front AMG-style bumper. A w203 looks so much better with an AMG bumper.

    1:41 - i completely agree with it being quite an experience to grab during cold winters, especially during the first minutes when the car is cold, but on the other hand, i found the metallic knob to feel more precise, the throws felt much nicer and mechanical due to the extra weight. Drove an identical car with a plastic knob and i can say i much prefer the metallic one. i'll just have to wear a glove, lol.

      You clearly haven’t done your homework on aftermarket steering wheels my friend! There are thousands, probably even hundred thousands of wheels available. Personal by Nardi for instance is my particular favourite. Looks like it belongs there in the first place.

    boosted my wagon and left it all stock because it's the Lincoln addition and it's got tons of leather and comfort but it's 400 horsepower wagon pretty badass. PS the best part is it is beige with beige interior and wood accents all over I love it.

      More distinct placement of the gearstick, I guess. My sister doesn't like driving my golf because 1st, 3rd and 5th (and 2nd and 4th, obviously) feel too close to each other for her.

    • @nsoper19
      @nsoper19 Před 7 lety

      yes could be that I suppose. needs more precision on the part of the driver but allows much better speed and performance.

    • @97I30T
      @97I30T Před 7 lety +1

      Nathan Soper Longer throws make the shifter lighter and easier to move around. Some people don't like short shifters because they make the shifter stiff and heavy. Short shifters also tend to be noisier and vibrate more and most car manufacturers try to tune that out as much as possible.

    • @nsoper19
      @nsoper19 Před 7 lety

      KentB27 yes that must be true I suppose since there is more distance from the pivot point and hence less force needed.

    On newer cars like my Fiesta ST you can very cheaply move the pedal slightly, through the use of the spacer. I know other cars like the BRZ/FRS/86 have a more adjustable relocation kit, but it still isn't mightily expensive. I did it to my car and I love it.

    • @BlitzkriegRap
      @BlitzkriegRap Před 7 lety

      I wish i could do something with the pedals in my car, brake pedal is so much higher than the gas pedal making it almost impossible to heel and toe. Also the brake pedal travel is very short and it bites at the top.

      I agree with the sentiment but... I'm pretty sure Seatbelts protect u more than airbags.
      And Anti-Locking brakes are probably just as important.
      Imo aftermarket steering wheels are only ok for 2 situtions:
      1.) Your old Airbag is damaged and it just costs way too much to replace it.
      2.) Trackcar with 6-point harness.
